Jon Gosselin reveals he’s writing a memoir after nasty divorce from Kate and ‘$1.3M’ custody battle
NO longer putting his whole life on reality TV, Jon Gosselin is getting ready to tell all about his “exhausting” divorce from ex Kate in a new memoir.
The Jon & Kate Plus 8 alum, 42, revealed details about the book in a new interview.
During his appearance on earlier this week, recapped his “$1.3 million” custody battle with the star, 44, and shared the book news.
Jon, who divorced in 2009 after 20 years of marriage, explained he’s “been working on a book for a long time” but how he wants it to end is what’s holding him back from releasing it.
He said: “I’m not sure how I’m gonna finish it because I still have teenagers.
“I don’t know if I want to finish it after they graduate or before they graduate. So, it depends on the ending of that.”
The Jon & Kate Plus 8 alum claimed: “There is no contact between Collin and his other siblings.
“There is contact between Hannah and the other siblings.
“So the problem right now is we have parent alienation and we have sibling alienation.”
Though there are still family issues happening, Jon’s glad he “didn’t give up” and was able to get custody of two of his kids.
He added: “I ended up with two. There could be more that come, so, I have no idea. But it’s a long battle. I just didn’t give up, and I’m still not gonna give up.”
The decision about who each kid lives with is ultimately left up to the children.
Jon revealed: “What my attorneys and hers have decided is custody is left up to my children. So, if they decide to go live with mom, or if they decide to live with dad, it’s up to them.”
As he continues to work on his book, the former reality star is looking ahead to the future and the end of his legal battles.
He shared: “I can see light at the end of the tunnel with my children, and I feel like I’m at the end of my divorce and those kinds of things.
“It’s been exhausting, the last decade, so I kind of feel like my normal life is kind of kicking off.”
